The substituions led to us drawing the game. It doesn't follow that playing the subs at the start would have won it.
This is a good example why you have to take the UEFA badges before you properly understand the tactics of the game.
Grin very good.
It was more that we started with one striker (imo) and only went with two once we were playing catch up. Ie a change of game plan rather than the change of player. We would not have thrown 3 additional forwards on if we were 2-0 with 15 to go.
To be serious, if I were taking one of these badges, whilst I would listen to the received wisdom regards what tactics to apply to a given situation, I would be doing so to pass the exam in order to ply my trade. I would only listen beyond that if the teacher convinced me that his methodology was superior to the alternatives and my own experiences within the game.
Do they teach tactics on these UEFA qualified courses that managers are then expected to employ, is that what the game has come to, or is it so that these students can show that they have an understanding of the types of tactic more generally, and the game itself?

I think what Larry meant was that playing 3 out and out forwards in Rose, Edmondson and Chuck - as well as wingers - from the start probably would not have gone the same way as it did in the last 15/20 minutes for us. Doing this left us very stretched and going like this from the off would have probably lead to us conceding at least a couple on the counter attack, given the Gillingham forwards would have been still fresh.

I agree that it would be nice to see us start with 2 up top in the next game. I'd go for Edmondson (off the back of scoring) and Chuck (to give us a spark and to drop deeper and use his technical ability). Miller on the left and either Marshall or Hoskins on the right and that would be attacking yet no overly so, and we would have the option of bringing Rose on from the bench later on if we need a goal?

Without the advantage of UEFA badges, on Saturday I would have started with Jones and Chuk up front with a midfield of Miller Marshall/Hoskins Morris/McWilliams Watson.
Next game I'd start with the same front six but that's without knowing what the current position is on injuries.
I wasnt for a second suggesting we start with three strikers only two. If we then went two up swap a striker for a midfielder and if we went 2 down the reverse. My initial post was in response to Bungle saying that we went for it and took the game to Gillingham. Did we, from the off?

You’re right to say they didn’t take the game to Gillingham from the off. I think the concern was that Gills would overpower with the bombarding direct style that has been working so well for them since January, and that we would be chasing too much of a deficit - as we inflicted on Cheltenham and Exeter in the playoffs. I think the extra bodies in the midfield / defence probably helped to stem that and in fact the opening goal came from a bit of really poor organisation from a corner. I’m with you though that I’d like to see us start more offensively next game with 2 up top but I hope it doesn’t play to our detriment.

Would be interesting to know what team Brady would pick 3 days after the game has finished knowing how it all played out and who did well on match day.
